FEC Opens Probe of Rep. Jasmine Crockett Donations
[Daily Signal] The Federal Election Commission opened an investigation into firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, regarding donations to her 2024 campaign made through ActBlue, a Democrat fundraising powerhouse organization.

The Coolidge-Reagan Foundation, a conservative advocacy group, made the FEC complaint on March 26, as first reported by The Daily Signal.

On April 2, the FEC notified the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation it would review the matter and notify Crockett.

"The respondents will be notified of this complaint within five business days," Wanda D. Brown, the FEC assistant general counsel for complaints examination and legal administration, said in the letter.

"You will be notified as soon as the Federal Election Commission (FEC) takes final action on your client’s complaint. Should you receive any additional information in this matter, please forward it to the Office of the General Counsel."

Brown wrote the letter to Dan Backer, a Washington lawyer representing the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation.

"The FEC opened an investigation. There is a process, but they are investigating," Backer told The Daily Signal.

The complaints reference a specific suspect donor reported to have given 53 separate donations totaling $595 to Crockett’s campaign through the ActBlue portal.

The suspect donor was a 73-year-old Texas resident named Randy Best, according to the FEC complaint.

However, Best’s wife—in a video promoted by one of Crockett’s opponents for 2026, Sholdon Daniels—denied knowing anything about the donations. The complaint contends this possibly means Best—and potentially other donors through ActBlue—did not make the donations listed under their names.
